Syntax 1 For all objects

Determines the natural logarithm of a number.

<span>Log</span> ( <span>n</span> ) <span></span>

1	<span>Log</span> ( <span>n</span> ) <span></span>

Argument	Description
n	The number for which you want the natural logarithm (base e). The value of n must be greater than 0.

Double. Returns the natural logarithm
of n. An execution error occurs if n is negative
or zero. If n is null, Log returns null.

Inverse of Log

The inverse of the Log function is the Exp function.

This statement returns 2.302585092:

<span>Log</span>(10)

1	<span>Log</span>(10)

This statement returns –.693147. . . :

<span>Log</span>(0.5)

1	<span>Log</span>(0.5)

Both these statements result in an error at runtime:

<span>Log</span>(0)

1	<span>Log</span>(0)

<span>Log</span>(-2)

1	<span>Log</span>(-2)

After the following statements execute, the value
of a is 200:

double a, b =  <span>Log</span>(200)

1	double a, b = <span>Log</span>(200)

a = Exp(b)// a = 200

1	a = Exp(b)// a = 200
